About this property

The Boathouse by the Creek

The Boathouse is a perfect place to recapture some peace in a hectic world. Enjoy the lovely setting of this romantic spot in nature. A great place to get away for a breath of fresh air. Sit by the year round creek and enjoy the soothing sounds of water meandering its way beneath the lush green trees as the sunlight peaks through the branches and dances on the water. Take a creek walk and enjoy the beauty of nature on a relaxing adventure.

Last year, we stayed in The Shanty by the Creek, but this year we needed a bit more room and decided to book The Boathouse. Once again, we were not disappointed. The Boathouse has an even better view then The Shanty, though it was very beautiful and unique in its own right. I can highly recommend either place, just depending on your needs. I love sitting outside on the deck in the morning and drinking my coffee, listening to the water and watching the wildlife. The inside is so cozy and you have pretty much everything you need. The composting toilet is unique, for me anyway, but after two stays now, it's just business as usual. One of our favorite features is the outdoor shower and endless hot water - pure heaven! Driving back to the cabin at night and seeing all of the outdoor lights is such a beautiful and unique experience. You won't regret booking this quaint little spot deep in the woods. Todd and Jennifer are awesome hosts and anything you need, just send a message and they respond promptly!
This was the waterfall after a rain the night before - so beautiful!
The creek looks more like a small river after it rains.
So beautiful at night with all of the lights.
